A BIG DEMAND FOR RENT.
The Union Railway Company Sues the Cincin-
natl. Hamilton & Indianapolis for SIC, 600.

The Union Railway Company has filed suit
against the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Indianapolis
Railway Company for rent for the use of the
Union tracks through the city, and, also. for the
use of the Union Depot The c., II. & I. was
formerly known as the Junction Railway Com
panv, and while it went by that name, the com
plant alleges that an agreement was entered into
for the payment of $1,000 per annum for the
use of the Union tracks and depot. When the
present management took the road they did not
acquire the rights for this amount, but were
permitted to use the tracks and depot for three
years The rent was gradually increased, but
the c., H. & /. continually refused to pay, and
when the Belt road was built they refused to
it. and have since continued to transfer their
through freight over the Union tracks as it is
alleged to the damage and inconvenience of the
Union Railway Company. All other lines have
ceased to use the Union tracks for freight pur-
poses, but still the G., H. & /. maintains the
right to use them for such purposes, and refuses
to pay any toll whatever. In a former suit judg.
ment secured for $l1 900 for unpaid rent,
and the amount demanded this time includes the
period from April l. 1885, to June, 1856. The
amount demanded is 1000

The Baseball Enthusiasts Determined to
Raise 500, 900 Before the End of the Week.

The meeting at the Bates House, last evening,
of gentlemen who are interested in the proposed
purchase of the Maroons' franchise, was by far
the most enthusiastic held since the first organ
izatior several weeks ago. I. S. Gordon pre-
sided, and Albert Oveus acted as secretary 1t
was stated that $50 900 was necessary to admit
Indianapolis into the League, $40 900 of which
would be needed in purchasing the franchise
and the remainder as a guarantee to the
League for a safe conduct of the
local team through the season. 1t
was clearly shown by the gentlemen who have
given the matter special attention that only a
failure on the part of INDIANAPOLIS to raise suf-
ficient money would prevent this city from being
chosen at the League meeting the 7th Of
March the eighth club. As late yesterday
afternoon letter was received by A. ]. Treat
from President Soden, of Boston, reaffirrnng his
preference for Indianapolis, but supplementing
his remarks with the suggestion that the local
representatives present themselves with at least
$40, 900 pledged. telegram from President
Stearns. of Detroit gave assurance that this
city was his choice if regular purchase Of the
Maroon franchise could be effected.
1t was apparent to the meeting that speedy
action on the part Of various committees to So
licit further subscriptions will be necessary to
accomplish these objects. and the chair accord

distinct committees, with specified territory in
which to operate special committee, com

Schwabacher. who at the same time signalizsd his
intentions of doubling his already liberal SUBJ

these committees it is argued that the desired
amount can be raised by Saturday afternoon,
there being over $4,000 already subscribed. A
much more careful and systematic plan was adopt

we were five minutes late. for the 9th
ers were there when we arrived TN,
duelist looked more CHASTITY bv daylight
than he had the night before. but he
bowed pleasantly to us all. I told his
seconds that TOmasO had had no expe.
rience with the sword, but they shrugged
their shoulders carelessly, and one of them
said something about the fortunes of war.
1t was quite evident that they knew of
the Ignorance Of the boy, and that their
principal was also acquainted with the con-
dition of affairs. To tell the truth. this
was rather a source of satisfaction to me.
for l did not believe the duelist would
butcher the young Cuban outright, but
would probably exercise his skill in Civ
ing him some slight wound which would
satisfy the demands of honor
l was wrong. A quicker duel was never
fought. The men faced each other and
stood for moment with their swords
crossed. Then the duelist, who, by the
way, was as agile and firm a sWordsman
as ever saw, made a conventional thrust
at the boy. TOmasO parried it and sprang
forward again precisely as he had done in
the attack after the theatre. His teeth
were set and his eyes cleaned. His on
slaught was so unexpected and fierce that
his antagonist threw his sword too high
for the parry, and the point Of Tomas0's
sword swept under it with a flash like
lightning and laid open the cheek of the
duelist straight down to the neck. Then
the boy bounded back and stood with the
blade of his sword clasped in his left hand
staring at his astOunded foe. 1t was the
quickest thing 1 ever saw. The wound
was a distiguring one, but by no means
dangerous. The presence of blood salts
fed the honor that had been so violently
outraged that night. There was a con-
ventiOnal hand shaking and a moment
later we were rolling back to town. I
don't think we had been out of the car
riage six minutes. The amaZement of the
duelist was so complete that 1 doubt if
he realizes to this day what had occurred.
and the hilarity of the three AngIo-Saxons
who had made up the party of the young
Cuban extended far into the following
night. The ignorance of Tomaso had
saved him, for no man with a knowledge

he did in that furious sonslaught.-Blakelv
